Amazing video!👍👏 I just began my comic book collection and found Toon Haven. They have an incredible range of digital comics for every genre, including the hard to find ones. Lifetime updates too!😁

I keep mine that way. It is annoying if you're in a hurry to find a book. But it does help maintain the condition of the books. If you turn the box sideways and flip through it's not as hard to see both books, imo. Nice pick up.

I think I bought that Artgerm Spider-Gwen at 14:55 last week from you guys on your Whatnot sale. It was a really nice book and goes well in my Artgerm collection, appreciate it! Oh, and I store my books that way too, face to face and back to back, it’s the best way to keep them in long term storage so the books stay flat and to maximize space in the box.

This is an awesome collection. And for those that don't buy modern, You missed out on the first Miles, Hellverine, Kamala Khan and so on. You're just going to pay way more for them in the future than you had to pay. If you don't want any modern books then then don't cry when you see a book sell for ridiculous amounts of money because they showed up in some big Marvel movie down the line.

He had a friend with him that was like $15 before we even talk to you.

Honestly as a long time collector and seller I think the 1800 dollars as a stiff price to pay for this collection. However with your minor you tube status selling these on whatnot would be your best bet. From what I’ve seen people seem to pay dumb prices on that site. It could be a new comic that just came out for 3 bucks and they’ll pay 6. Like I said with the you tube status you have you might break even. I just think as a comic collector 1800 could have been spent in a lot better way. I’ve actually given away for free comics like this. In my opinion the bags and boards are worth more then the comics

@SuperSeoExperts 2 ай бұрын

I was thinking how bad the collector made out on this one. Nine long boxes is what like 2500 comics roughly. Those BCW plastic long boxes are $55 a piece. 2500 comic bags and boards at $0.25 a piece. That alone: 9boxes * $55= $495 Bags and boards: 2500comics * $0.25 = $625 Total cost without comics so far: $1,120. So if you take that into account sold for $1800 - $1,120 cost of just storage = $680 remaining to divide by total number of boosters which I said in this example was 2,500 for cost per comic is $0.27! That’s how I look at it what am I missing?

@stevenmartin6812 2 ай бұрын

@@SuperSeoExperts you into the hobby to buy boxes, bags and boards or comics. The comics I seen listed look like they are worth a quarter or if I owned them and sold I would throw like 4 in free with every order I sold. I just don’t think this was a good buy for 1800. That’s just me. I love these guys vids I just personally wouldn’t buy this collection. And I wouldn’t be all like wow look at all the boxes bags and boards i got

@SuperSeoExperts 2 ай бұрын

@@stevenmartin6812 Thanks for sharing your perspective! I absolutely value the insight from an experienced collector like yourself. You’re right; the intrinsic value of the comics themselves is the most important factor for many collectors. My approach was to consider all aspects of the collection, including the storage solutions, which also carry a cost. However, I completely understand that the main appeal should be the comics' worth and not just the accessories that come with them. It’s really about what each collector values most in their acquisitions. I appreciate your thoughts, and it certainly gives me (and maybe others) a bit more to think about for future investments. Happy collecting!!
